As I'm not a native speaker it sometimes gets pretty hard to describe it i guess. I realized that there was some problem with the ptf file and the nios ide. If I build something in SOPC and i missed a component (in my case it was an interval timer needed for the microC OS used by the tse Ethernet acceleration benchmark) the nios starts compiling and aborts with error 1 @line 0 or something like that.
